Minisforum DEG1 eGPU dock launched at $99 — open-air device supports up to RTX 4090 and OCuLink connections

Minisforum DEG1.

Mini-PC maker Minisforum just launched one of the cheapest eGPU docks on the market with the DEG1. This GPU docking station uses OCuLink, allowing you to enjoy as much as 64 Gbps of bandwidth. Because of its open-air design, you can fit even the largest RTX 4090 and RX 7900 XTX GPUs, allowing you to pick freely among the best GPUs to interface with your mini-PC, handheld, laptop, or other internal-capacity-constrained device.

The eGPU dock also sports a signal amplifier, ensuring the video signal from the CPU to the GPU remains stable. Nevertheless, we still recommend keeping the DEG1 near your computer to avoid cable spaghetti. Of course, you also need a PSU to power the dock and the graphics card, and the DEG1 will work with any PC standard ATX or SFX power supplies with enough output. Again, we wouldn't want cable spaghetti, so we recommend using a modular power supply to avoid getting stuck with unnecessary wires.
